I somehow missed the "Dismiss" command on a couple of wake-up alarms last week and now I keep getting the alarm notification sounds and can't find any way to stop them.
I get the alarms every time that I re-start the phone (which I have to do after ending an ActiveSync session).
I have not installed the latest firmware yet, because I don't have the time to back-up all of my settings & shortcuts, so I just want to stop the notification sounds without major disruption.
I've tried all the combinations of alarm and notification settings that I can find and it makes no difference.
I presume that non-dismissed alarms are stored somewhere and keep firing-up whenever the phone is re-started, but how can I stop them?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
PS, I don't have any registry editing software.
Use the attached software (install via activesync) to clear duplicated notifications. In options/settings both boxes need to be checked. If i still wont go after this I found sktools sorts out stubborn duplicate notifications http://s-k-tools.com/

When you say to install via ActiveSync, do you mean to have an ActiveSync connection with the phone and then run the executable on the PC?

Yes thats right
Check Notification
I've installed the program and get a long list of events.
In the Application column, a number are NULL, but most entries are sddaemon.exe, plus some calupd.exe, CALNOT.EXE, CALENDAR.EXE, clocknot.exe, repllog.exe.
I have 144 events.
When I click the Clear button, it processes the events and then the program gets stuck on Event 145 of 144.
I seem to be able to clear the events one at a time, which is extremely laborious.

You should only clear duplicate notifications - some of those notifications listed are important to the normal running of the phone. Make sure both checkboxes are ticked under options. If there is a stubborn duplicate notification that won't shift use sktools that should do it.

Oops !
I cleared all notifications before I saw your message.
What can I expect to go wrong with the phone and can I fix it?
Thanks
delete the NULL notifications by hand, tap on them and choose delete. after that, just press clear and all other duplicates will be removed automatically.

If the phone is still working then fine - soft reset hopefully the important notifications will return - all those marked calendar are for reminders of appts/events so you will need to set the reminders again. The actual events should still be there.

I am using a trial version of MemMaid and am confused with all the items in the Notification Queue. I have no duplicates but have 18 items all for differing dates and times which are lall isted as
\\.Notifications\NamedEvents\SCRIPT:0x0
The dates and times do not have any significance to me,
Can any one tell me what these are likely to be and if it is safe to delete them?
Al
alarms, calendar events (appointments, etc.) best would be to export it, attach the file, and let us have a closer peek - there's several that need to be running for regular operation
I've attached mine - should be clean of any events
Is thare a way to export the notifications to an external file using MemMaid or other 3rd paty software? All the \\.Notifications\NamedEvents\SCRIPT:0x0
items are set for weird times e.g. 04:09:33, 07:24:25, 07:25:23.I know I have never set any alarms or appt. reminders at these times.
I have looked through your attachment and can match up most items with what is displayed in MemMaid on my vario but am still no nearer understanding the above notifications.

Take a look on this topic. It makes the alarm goes nuts. Anyone can explain how this notifications are created?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46126
I found this elsewhere
Some of you may have noticed these "\\.\Notification\NamedEvents\Script..." entries in the notification queue database that seem to build up for unknown reasons. Well, I just realized that these entries are created for each event where the "Flash Light for" option is enabled.
To prevent these entries from building up, disable the "Flash Light for" option using the "Sounds & Notifications" settings for specific events, i.e. "Messaging: new text messages".
But if you prefer to have this LED alert enabled, avoid selecting "No Limit" as this results in corresponding notification q database entries to expire only approx 42 days later. They do not get cleaned up sooner thus, the build-up.
Eliminating all the "No Limit" settings eliminated my buildup.

Yes you can!
My the use of Memmaid is an option for you, there you can scan the notification que and delete duplicates.
I used checkNotifications (it's free) and cleared them all down anyway.
Phone seems a bit snappier to, so I've turned off 'unlimited' light flashing notifications.
please help

Did you delete the clocknot and calnot notifications? That would do it. I think they meant to delete the
\\.\Notification\NamedEvents\Script
type notifications, which are remnants of "no limit" notifications from messaging, phone and the like. You can stop the buildup by going to Settings/Sounds and Notifications and eliminating all "No Limit" notifications
Thanks for the Help. I notice that the notification alarm will come back the next day.
yesterday i've deleted all duplicate clock.exe notifications and all SCRIPT notifications (i've had ~50 of them!). so far, everything works ok, at least wizard's alarm woke me up in the morning.
Hi,
My prophet's (M600) alarm keeps on going off when I reset the device. There is no notification and no ways to stop it. I have to mute the device for an hour or so, then it "forgets" about it. Any idea why this happened and any ways to stop it apart from hard resetting?
Thanks in advance
Hi,which alarm ? Alarm clock ?
Yes, I think it is the alrm clock. As I said there is no notification saying what alarm it is, but it is the same sound as I used for Alarm clock to wake up in the morning.
Thanks
Maybe a scheduled task registered every day no ?
No. Infact there is no alarm set now. I dont even use it to wake up in the morning. I have turned off the alarm. Still it starts after a soft reset.
Thanks for reply
Do you use a plug today in your today screen ? Next message in pm.
The problem will be a notification in the notify queue that should not be there. For a calendar reminder it will be a calendar.exe notification. Use the attached program to check the notification queue - find the one and delete. For the alarm notification - turn off alarm and check the queue and delete any clock.exe notifications which is the one for alarms. Also goto options/settings and tick both boxes and check for duplicate notifications which will be marked in red - delete those. Do not delete the other notifications they are needed for the normal running of the device.
Activesync your device and run exe from pc.
Thanks for the reply. I tried this using memaid. But no cure. So, I had to hard reset my device. Thanks anyway :roll:

hey, I was having the same problem - and it worked! MemMaid will open the notificaiton queue; from there, I had to look for any "CLOCK.EXE" type notification - I found several that were set for daily alarms, even though they never rang (and I don't remember setting them.) Deleting them did the trick!
THANKS!
help please
So it gets rid of the notifications.
but if i want to use the windows alarm, why does it not show up on the screen when the alarm is going off? I want to be able to snooze.
should i just use a 3rd party alarm?
Worked for me
Yep that program worked for me to. only problem was i had so many clock.exe in the list and you can only select one at a time and it takes its time. but still quicker that reseting my phone up after a hard reset.
cheers
I had the same problems as others listed on here and so I am trying this fix. During the fix I noticed a lot of "null" applications.
What do all the "null" lines mean?
Example: Application - Null
Notify type - CNT_TIME
Event Status - Active
Event Type - NONE
Arguments - (none)
Thanks
MemMaid worked for me too
Hello,
I had the same problem, every notifications didn't display.
I installed DinarSoft MemMaid v2.3, in the QuickClean tab I checked the 4 Notifications-related lines and I performed the cleaning process.
Then a soft reset with the stylus & the small button next to the usb connector.
And then : no more orange led flashes, no more unwanted alarm sounds. And I can use the alarm or calendar notifications again. It works.
Thank you for your posts.
I didnt like the way the emails and messages opened in the home tab, ie it goes straight to the latest message so I added the mail and messages programs from the start menu to my quick links which corrects these problems. However, there is no notifications on the quick links to notify me if I've got a message or not. Is there a way you can get notifications to come up like it does on the home tabs?

You can set notifications to show on screen messages for these events, yeah.
Go to Settings, All Settings, Sounds & Notifications, Notifications (tab) and when you go to message or new email message, you can set it to "Display message on screen".
Hope this helps

Unfortunately not because if I go into settings I don't have an option for 'All settings'. The only option I can find for notifications is under display and sounds, and I can only change the sounds and vibrate for notifications. Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry - it's the settings tab, then Menu, then All settings.
It's frustrating because All Settings is what the settings icon in the start menu used to do, and some people have modified the registry so that it's back that way (me included), so when you want someone to go to settings, you have to actually tell them to go to the settings tab, then menu, then all settings, when you just want the bloody windows settings screen!! lol

The notification wasn't exactly what I was after, with the fix suggested above a pop up comes up saying new sms which is not exactly what I was after. What I wanted was something like on the messages on the tabs where you get a green circle superimposed with a number of how many messages you have. Can that be done?
Ah - I see what you're saying now. Sorry, I misunderstood.
Have you looked at MaxManila at all? That does exactly what you're asking.

Hello,
Q1) There are only 3 alarms available in Windows Mobile 6.5. Does anyone knows how to add more?
Q2) Also, I remember when i was using HTC Touch, when new SMS comes in, it appears on the screen and i was able to either 'hide' or 'open' the SMS. On HD2, when I set it to show new SMS, I can only hide it but I can't open it to read. Instead, I have to go through 'HTC Messages'. Does anyone knows how to have both options 'hide' (on the left) and 'open' (on the right) available when new SMS shows up?
Please see attached screenshots if I did not manage to explain well.
Appreciate all kind advice.
Many thanks in advance!
I've tries to add more entries in the registry to add more alarms, but apparently it doesn't work.
and I've no clue for the sms issue either.
does anyone have the same issues as me? any clues?
thanks.
galarm
i guess
indeed, I've read about all e good comments about it. in fact, I installed it 2 months ago, but I encountered problems like battery drains n missed alarms. I've since uninstalled. maybe this problem is not too common with other users, but it was a problem for me..
thanks for your suggestion though.
pTravel alarm?
Works well for me and no battery drain... also if you are on the lock screen you can tap the open widget then swipe the sms widget and it opens sms screen or if you tap on the task bar it will give you the list of things to look at and one of them is the messages screen...
For the SMS, why not just turn off on-screen notification. When you get an SMS you'll get the usual audio/vibrate alert, and an icon in the taskbar. You can then just click on the SMS tab icon at the bottom and you're looking at the SMS. 1 click and you're there.
For the alarm question... there's a registry setting for this, but I don't know what it is. If you use BsB Tweaks you can enable "Windows Notifications" mode which "Enables dismiss X time in notification". This is a crap description and I used to just ignore this option as it sounded completely uninteresting. Then I found out what it is.
With this enabled, you get the option to select a sleep time for an alarm when it's going off (see the attachment). I doubt my boss would be impressed if I chose the last option though
It will at least free up your second alarm as you could just snooze the first one for 10 minutes.
I am also interested in the being able to open an sms from the notification dialog...
On Q1: I've been using SPB Time since quite long time. The new edition 2.1.2 is really awesome. And it answers to your question
On Q2: When I receive sms I have sound + icon above on the taskbar. So if I click on the icon - "notification" window opens and after another click on new sms icon you see your sms. Just you pay one click more.

indeed, i remember this option to open sms on notification used to be available in older wm versions. and we could also dismiss instead of hide the sms.

Hi guys,
I am having some troubles getting notification messages from my calendar when i set it to remind me(the messages you get with "dismiss" and "snooze"). I made a task and set it to remind me and that works, but with the calendar it wont work.
Has anyone experienced this problem? And how might we solve it? thanks alot
did you set it to all day? if i remember correctly all day events dont show (though i may be miss remembering, and my phone isnt with me to test..)

Nope, its set between a specific time period not an all day event.
I happen to have 2 hd2's(the other one is my son's), and the calendar notfications work on his. so right now i am tring to find something related to calendar/reminder in the registry to see if any values might be different.
Any ideas on where the calendar stuff is in the registry?
have you checked settings - menu - all settings - sounds and notifications - notifications tab
event - reminders, make sure 'display message on screen' is checked?

Yep i have already seen all those setting and changed them like you say but no dice.
Not having much luck with the registry settings either...I thought i had it when i found a difference between my hd2 and my sons in the registry HKCU : ControlPanel\Notifications\{15F11F90-8A5F-454c-89FC-BA9B7AAB0CAD} where the "duration" key in mine was a value of 5 and my sons 0. So i changed mine to 0 as well but no luck so far
